TV Show American Idol

TV Show American Idol

American Idol is a television series from the American Singing Competition created by Simon Fuller, produced by Fremantle Media North America and 19 Entertainment, and distributed by Fremantle North America. It was initially aired on Fox from June 11, 2002 to April 7, 2016 for 15 seasons. Since March 11, 2018, a return to the ABC series has been released.

It began as an addition to the Idols format based on Idol Pop on British television, and has become one of the most successful programs in American television history. The concept of the series is to discover the recording of the stars of unsigned singing talents, with the winner identified by American viewers through telephone and Internet voting and SMS. The winners of the first 17 seasons selected by spectators are Kelly Clarkson, Robin Stoddard, Fantasia Barrino, Carrie Underwood, Taylor Hicks, Jordan Sparks, David Cook, Chris Allen, Lee Dewis, Scottie McCreary, Philip Phillips, Candice Glover, Caleb Johnson, Nick Fradiani, Trent Harmon, Maddy Bob and Lynn Hardy respectively.

American Idol uses a panel of vocal judges who criticize the contestants' performance. The original referees, from the first to the eighth season, were producers and music director, Randy Jackson, singer and choreographer Paula Abdul, and executive director and musician Simon Cowell. The jury in Fox's last three seasons consisted of singers Keith Urban, Jennifer Lopez and Harry Connick Jr. Season 6 brought in three new judges: singers Lionel Richie, Katie Perry and Luke Bryan. The first season featured radio personality Ryan Seacrest and comedian Brian Dunkelman, but Seacrest remained the only master of celebrations for the rest of the series. The success of American Idol has been described as "incomparable in the history of transmission."  A rival television official said the series was "the most shocking program in television history".

Key Schools in china

The designation of ``Key School'' exists for selected schools at every educational level in China: elementary, secondary and higher. In addition, there are various levels of the ``key'' designation itself: There are national key institutions, provincial or municipal key institutions, and county or district key institutions. Key schools all enjoy priority funding as well as the privilege of recruiting the best students. At the elementary and secondary levels, this concept is similar to that of a ``magnet'' or ``college preparatory'' school in the United States. Entry into such schools is based on examination and academic promise and achievement. For such schools, success is usually measured in terms of the percentage of its graduates entering colleges and universities, especially the key colleges and universities. The philosophy has been that giving a limited number of schools, colleges and universities priority in allocating limited resources, then the t...

How Bones Grow in Body

When you were a baby, you had tiny hands, tiny feet, and tiny everything! Slowly, as you grew older, everything became a bit bigger, including your bones. A baby's body has about 300 bones at birth. These eventually fuse (grow together) to form the 206 bones that adults have. Some of a baby's bones are made entirely of a special material called cartilage (say: kar-tel-ij). Other bones in a baby are partly made of cartilage. This cartilage is soft and flexible. During childhood, as you are growing, the cartilage grows and is slowly replaced by bone, with help from calcium. By the time you are about 25, this process will be complete. After this happens, there can be no more growth — the bones are as big as they will ever be. All of these bones make up a skeleton that is both very strong and very light. more...
